Go back to draft

Who can do this

Owners, Admins, the branch's manager and the project's lead. Every plan.

  2. Open the menu beside the main button. === "Desktop" Select More options. === "Phone (375px)" Select More.

What happens next

The state bar shows Draft. The move is listed under State history on the Review tab and in your organisation's audit trail. Start review is the main button again once every file is ready.

If something goes wrong

  • A publication is running. It finishes by itself. Back to draft waits while a release is being made. Wait until the state bar shows Published; then select Start a new draft instead.
  • A project lead or an Admin moves this project to its next state. Your role cannot move the project. Ask the project's lead or an Admin.
  • A published project does not go back to Draft. See Review and publishing reference.
